Former Giants manager Bruce Bochy spoke with Alex Pavlovic about his impressions of the Giants’ surprising 2020 season and what he’s doing in retirement.

Pablo Sandoval isn't done yet. 

MLB Network's Jon Heyman reported Sunday that the former Giants third baseman has agreed to one-year, minor league contract with the Atlanta Braves. If he makes the major league team, his contract will be worth $1 million. 

Sandoval, who will turn 35 years old in August, played in 33 games for the Giants last season. He hit just .220 with one home run. 

The Giants released Sandoval on Sept. 10, 2020. The Braves then signed him three days later. He appeared in one regular season game, going 0-for-2 with two walks.
